Blueridge air handlers are the indoor portion of a split-system air conditioningor heat pump system (if you don't have a furnace). Pair this air handler with an outdoorAC condenser to complete your cooling system, or with a heat pump for efficient heatingand cooling. Add an optional backup electric heat strip to ensure optimal heat, no matterthe outside temperature. The Blueridge BE5C air handler series is a great value with thelowest up-front cost in the series, with a multi-speed motor, with 3 different speedsyou can set for maximum performance in heating and cooling modes.
